Soviet_Poland 06/15/17 1:11:05 AM #130:	Late to the party, but I'll bite. TC is technically correct. Science cannot answer those questions, because anyone even remotely familiar with the scientific method knows that's outside of the scope of science. Science only concerns itself with testable (i.e. falsifiable) hypotheses. It also spends more time in the "how" moreso than the "why", given the metaphysical clusterfuck/baggage associated with any sort of "why" question. Now, that doesn't mean he wasn't reaching for a low hanging fruit for the sake of being facetious. I'm not religious myself, but I always find these topics silly. Science and religion are pretty inextricably linked in history, and while their relationship was contentious at times, it doesn't mean they necessarily have to be mutually exclusive. Modern Catholicism officially accepts natural selection as the mechanism of evolution, they just rationalize it under "mechanism by which God did it", and they even have ways to reconcile their faith in the event aliens are discovered (lol). Tbh, I had a bullshit 1 credit "meaning of life" filler class back in undergrad. One day we had a guest lecturer, an astronomer from the Vatican. I thought it was totally going to be some sappy faith-based cop out, but it wasn't anything like that. Spoke to estimated age of the universe, Big bang, mechanism by which galaxies and planets formed, etc. Pretty basic astronomy stuff. No mention of God ever. That's when I dropped all pretense. I don't believe, but I'm not going to shit on others for believing. I talk details about scientific theories with religious friends all the time. They're not any less capable at science-heavy topics. Their metaphysical beliefs are separate, and we just happen to have different conclusions. Oh and TC is also wrong in that "why" questions are purely the domain of religion.

Well, in case you really don't know, I'd suggest you google him. He's commonly attributed as being a nihilist, even those his works merely just explain it as a phenomenon and was actually pretty avidly against it. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." <cite>Soviet_Poland posted [p:881137723] in Religion i...

But to answer your question, God does tell you want he wants. It's right there in the bible. Straight from Jesus mouth Then why would it be so bad if he just came out and said it? He practically did As Jesus But he didn't actually do it. Just practically. But that wasn't the question. You said a big giant face in the sky going "Hey, what's up?" would rob away all our free will. But then you said he talks to everyone all the time, made his wishes known in the Bible no now came to earth and Jesus... Why don't all these things rob away all our free will? What's the difference? The hoop jumping and moving goal posts by Haldol is impressive. I haven't moved shit You all are just so anti religion that nothing I say will convince you You want answers? Ask God and listen. He will tell you Well, you started by saying that God will literally talk to you. Then you moved away from that to say that it's just some form of communication through Jesus, then through whatever was written in the Bible. I'm not trying to be snarky with you, but this is a bit silly. Silliness to silliness, I just asked God if it would talk to me about something. No reply. What now? He will guide you and speak with you if you ask. It's hard to explain. Because I am not a priest or anything. But it's like you can just feel his presence. It's not like exact words or hearing things. But when you pray and ask for guidance, you just know he's leading you down the right path. Like recently for me. I needed a day off for something very important that only i could do. I prayed but I felt like my only hope was to call off. I texted one last coworker to help me. She took a while to respond..just as I lost hope though, she hit me back saying that she needed a weekend day off and was praying herself to see how she'd get it. She saw my text 5 minutes later. Needless to say we worked out out and now we both got what we needed.
